My 14 week old baby was a horrid sleeper for the first 8/9 weeks - and i mean horrid i was ‘surviving’ on 2 hours sleep a night and suffered bad PND from it. From 9ish weeks we got into a great routine accidentally really bath 7.45 bottle 8.15/8.30 bed by 9pm. He would then sleep and have a bottle at 1am and a bottle at 4/5am.
For the last 3 weeks he had dropped his 1am bottle and was just having 1 bottle anywhere between 3-6am.
Until 4 nights ago - He is now waking less than an hour after he goes down (this has never happened before not even once) and then back waking for 2 night feeds! I know they go through a 4m sleep regression could this be it? Could he be teething or is he too young?
I seem to be suffering from anxiety about him falling out of his routine, even though i know babys will not consistently follow a routine i seem to be finding it hard that it’s happening especially at night.
Is there a reason he is waking so soon after i put him down, is between 8.30-9pm too late to be put down and should i be aiming for an earlier bedtime?
He is also not good with day naps either, he has about 3/4 per day, but not at set times and they only last about 30 mins.
Any help or tips appreciated!!
